  • Drive continuous improvement in safety, quality, delivery, cost savings, and employee morale in General Assembly.
  • Drive launch and mid-cycle action activities, cost improvements, and raising the bar on quality and product safety.
  • Monitor launch curve attainment for new programs and establish PDCA as needed.
  • Coordinate project plans with maintenance and engineering organizations
  • Lead the elimination of waste in all aspects of the business.
  • Teach, cultivate, and promote teamwork and problem solving in a positive, proactive work environment.

| WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TEAM:

  • Excellent interpersonal skills and ability to interface with various levels of employees within all areas of the Plant from hourly represented employees to Senior Leadership as required.
  • Ability to build effective business relationships with plant leadership and customers.
  • Ability to effectively lead a diverse workforce, teach, coach and mentor employees to go above and beyond required operational and business objectives.
  • Must have a strong working knowledge of Automotive, General Assembly, Production, Process and Maintenance.
  • Strong knowledge of continuous improvement systems.
  • Knowledge of other process systems, quality systems, throughput, standardization, and product/process launch.
  • Ability to manage and coordinate complex projects while maintaining simplistic communications to others.
